I play the 360 a lot more than Wii. Hell, at the moment I play my PC more than the Wii. I don't consider it 'my' console. Of the many things I hate the Wii for, here are just a few: online play is a pile of shit in every way. Not enough face buttons on the controller. Bad specs. Not enough games for people like me.
But shooting? Hell naw. Sounds to me like you're just saying everything sucks about the Wii, the same way you seem to think I'm saying everything about it is good.
For the record, the only FPS I've seen on the Wii where the developers bothered to get the controls right is Metroid Prime 3 (with Advanced controls, fuck the aiming box of Red Steel). All of the other examples I can think of are 3rd-person shooters or games with shooting elements (like Zelda's projectiles). In all those cases, the games have noticeably benefited from being able to point n' shoot rather than having to adjust an aiming reticule with an analog stick. Lots of reviewers and journalists have pointed this out and dismayed because of how under-used it is.
It doesn't make a game good, but it can make a game better. As with Resi 4. The game is actually a lot less challenging on the Wii because it's very easy to make accurate shots very quickly.
It's not even like I'm saying Wii has the best shooter controls - it doesn't, PC does - I'm just saying it's better than dual analog, which really isn't saying a lot. Dual analog is notoriously bad, that's why most console FPSes have auto-aiming to some degree, or simply target locking like GTA4. This shit is well documented. It's like game science, bro!!!
